Without licensing fees how are the fish cops gonna get new Tahoes every year?
Re: Free fishing license proposal for veterans 🎣
Don't know about now but active and reserve military hunted and fished for free in NJ when I lived there. That was 40 years ago.

The military is a mutually beneficial situation. It not like volunteering to help starving babies in Africa for free. People should keep that in mind.
Re: Free fishing license proposal for veterans 🎣
As a veteran I would gladly pay for the license. I get my hunting license for free being a senior citizen.

It*s popular to elevate veterans to special status, worthy of extra perks. However, unless you*re a combat veteran, then you aren*t worthy of anything special.
Full disclosure: I have veteran status, but am not a combat veteran.

Someone has to pay for them. Trout don't stock themselves.
